'The prevailing ethos of car use epitomizes a deep-seated culture of individualism in travel behavior. Rooted in liberalism, this approach prioritizes maximizing one’s own utility, often at the expense of the collective good.' —tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10… (📹Happiness — Steve Cutts)

1/ 2 Dear @TOIBengaluru its unfortunate to see you write that street vendors are 'plaguing church street'. In your own picture you can see cars crowding the street. Is church street only for the rich? Only big coffee shops, pubs &cars are valid occupants of church street is it?

@Gaurav_Gullaiya When you say "most locations in Delhi" what do you mean? Please note that the concerned streets are also to be pedestrianised for this to work.

Tried at most locations in Delhi
People end up taking cars right at the gate of the shops!
Chairs pave way for people eating/drinking in "Cars"

When we let cars reign our streets, we'll inevitably have to cage our children. But as soon as we turn that around, magic happens!
Let's go 🪄🦄!

This is the map of cities in USA that offer free public transport (PT)
USA is not a role model for PT (Europe is) yet, super capitalist USA is trying free PT because the benefits far outweigh costs.
Free Public Transport is a Global Phenomenon

“Public transport is conformist”
Curioukose@JustCuriousMate
@AgentSaffron Public transit is conformist, collectivist and passive in nature. It is commynism under a nice wrapper Wonder how can a right winger not see thru it Private vehicles make USA what it is. It signifies absolute freedom of movement and thereby thought and action

Whether we have the space to move more & more people as cities grow, plus room for all the OTHER important things that make streets & cities great, depends ENTIRELY on HOW we choose to move. And how design makes better choices easier or harder. HT @NACTO

#Dehradun says enough of anti-green policies in the city.
“Dumb and green at 30 degree Celsius was better than smart & stinking at 43 degree Celsius.”

Citizens (silent) protest against AMC's decision to cut 100 full-grown trees for a flyover.
Even if there is a promise of planting more trees, we know that it's not the same.
How much does a flyover really cost? Destruction needs to be counted. #AMC
